..unless there is no alternative no one needs to see another's pain if it can be avoided. Seeing a person break down is painful. You can feel their pain, you experience some of the intensity and helplessness that they are feeling. Unless I have there is no alternative. But...

to see cry, to see me fall from cloud nine and land close to the ground that I can feel the heat from hell on my skin. I don't want you to see me as someone who is weak, a coward, as someone who can't. I don't want you to see me break down because I won't let that happen. I am...

after being out earlier this week. Told her i need her company after a long, stressful week. Without a pause she says no, she's looking forward to the party. I don't want to control my wife but I was disappointed that I couldn't be the exception.

I really don't want anyone to see me break down. I don't want anyone to think I am weak, and that I can't handle life. I want to be the strong one. The one who gets everyone else through the breakdowns. I just don't want anyone to see me breakdown. Its hard for me to lean on...

My dad always likes to tell me how proud he is of me for being so strong and not letting little flaws get to me. What he doesn't know is that every little thing gets to me. I can't tell him, he can't know! If he ever found out how weak I really was he wouldn't look at me the same...

I'm sorry you see me break down sometimes. I like it when you see me happy. When I'm able to joke, when I feel amused and chill with the world. But there are sometimes, some nights, some long days were I feel too much. When my head gets weighed down by thoughts and my heart rips...

I genuinely think I'm incapable of leaning on others. Even when I'm close to the breaking point (which I have been these last few days) and I know I should talk about things, I still push others away. If someone tries to get me to talk about what or why I'm upset, I get angry...

I really don't want anyone to see me break down. I don't want anyone to think I am weak, and that I can't handle life. I want to be the strong one. The one who gets everyone else through the breakdowns. I just don't want anyone to see me breakdown. Its hard for me...

“You know the way I feel alone at night;I ache to feel your body by my side.Then fear, like smoke, will chase away the light,Remembered secrets lost in gray can’t hideThe silence in the dark as we get dressed.I’ve just grown tired of begging you to stay,Left wishing you...

but you use an umbrella to walk under it. You say you love sun, but you seek shelter when it is shining. You say you love wind, but when it comes you close your windows. So that's why I'm scared when you say you love me...

your always asking me whats wrong. and you know that if i tell you whats wrong with me im just gonna break down and cry and i dont want you to see me cry!! but you always insist on me to tell you whats wrong!
what do you want from me!!is this what you want to hear....
im am not...

Some people use tears to control others but I am not able to do that with mine. I would prefer that no one ever see me cry especially a lover. Tears are healing but I just don't want to share them with everyone.

She waded by the shore
Uncertain and restrained
He walked nearby
Glancing and intrigued
She looked back
Curious yet controlled
He walked closer
Eager yet patient.
They danced through time
Twirling in knowing
Spinning in understanding
Hearts aware
Souls sense
The dance was meant...

But I know that my true self is destructive and I'm going to hurt people. I remember I used to be a selfish child. One day when I was about 8, I told myself to act nice and be a good person. I'm scared that I'll break down one day and become a psychopath. And then I'd shut...

and run last week. She was 18years old.. The driver is still at large 🐾🐉
I have so many different emotions tied into one big bubble which I must contained. I just gotta except death as I do a new born baby.
We buried my last uncle which carried the last name Battle...

I have so much pain and hurt in me that it don't make sense. People think they know the real me but don't not even my mother.. No one dose I want to run away to think things are going to be better but it's not. It's not the real me I think it's time that I go why should I be...

I keep my deepest feelings buried. We talk and share more than most couples but how can I tell you that i don't know me. I pretend to be so logical and real all the time but truth is I have no clue. Our intimate life has suffered because I feel like such a liar. Its not in my...

I hate to see you cry,
The tears spill from your eyes,
Like a waterfall of emotions,
Pouring out from your soul.
Consoling is no use,
You are a tirade of self abuse,
Hating the face that is open to see,
Tear stained and broken and full of pain.
I hate to see you cry,
It tears...

I'm an emotional rock. Rocks do not bleed and they do not cry, they remain strong for everyone else. What cruel flick of a higher power's wrist decided that I was to bear the burdens of others? Why am I not allowed to cry or bleed or feel at all? Years ago, I used to be capable...

as the weakling I am,
I have crumbled before an people have watched silently as I fell,
As I crashed beneath the surface,
So I will act like a girl who doesn't care,
To hide the girl who does,
Because the girl who does gets hurt,
Lied to,
Cheated,
Is the girl who cares...

I love the feeling of breaking, it's the only thing that keeps me humane. I can't sympathize with others and I cant empathize with others. I can't love others but I can hate others.
I've been broken for about 1.5 years now but nobody knows, I live a lie for others because I love...

For some reason, I just don't feel right today. The world seems to be passing me by at an abnormal rate, and I feel like I'm living in fast forward. Even though, the time I spent with my brother today was amazing, when I left to go hang out with my other friends, I just felt...

Withdraw. Send you away. Repel you if needed. Break your heart if I must. Just stay away from me!!
This is my hell to endure, not yours. I want to be held, comforted, told I will be ok...but I know no one will do that. So don't make me breakdown in front of you just to...

I don't really know what I am, but breaking down, being weak, and showing emotions out in the open is just something I'm not. Yes, im that friend that listens to everybodys problems, and now I find myself caught up in it. I would never go and cry...to anybody. I think I've gotten...

Dear Babee...I've written you many a letter on this site. I doubt you will ever see a single one. But I digress.If you could see the tears I've shed for you, would you still ignore me from time to time? Would you ever ask me why I'm being antisocial again, or wold you understand...

I spend most of my time alone today as I want to avoid anybody that knew thr person I once was. I dont want them to see melt down and who and what I now become. I hide because it come's on fast and without notice and almost anything can bring it on. I fear these breakdown's as I...

"Do you work tonight?"
"Yeah, at 4. Why?"
Then the phone rang. It was an unknown number, so I didn't answer it.
Then it rang again.
I picked up. "Hello?"
"Hi," he said. I can tell that he is busy, I can hear phones ringing in the background, and a murmur of people talking...

or cry so everyone just assumes that i am strong when honestly i am not. when people are not around i break and realize that i am weak physically and mentally. It does not help that the sight of food makes me want to vomit

I am pretty sure it stems from my childhood. I have always been sensitive even from a very young age. My mother constantly used to say to me that I was being silly and over-sensitive. As soon as I hit my twenties, I changed. I despise the thought of anyone seeing me at a weak and...

I don't break down easily. I am the kind of person who lets everything build up inside. I am proud and I feel as if I need to be the strong one that everyone looks up to. I feel so weak when I break down. I will let it out in front of my best friend and my fiance. But that is...

Right now it's 4:24 am as I start to write this. I didn't think the stuff in my life could get worse but my life loves to prove me wrong. Because I am afraid of anyone in my family seeing me cry I'm in the bathroom siting on the floor. Crying silently to my self hoping no one...

Tonight one of my housemates was watching some sappy movie on TV when I went out there to cook my supper.I don't know what about that movie hit me so hard...but I started to cry.Right there in the main room of the house. In front of both housemates. I stood there, out of...

It was never an option for me to break down. Crying was never the solution only the problem, opening up was weakness not strength.. perfection was power, visible flaws or problems was the end of you.
So imagine you grow up with this mentality, you try to break free and do the...

I'll look weak and it invites attack, so I really do avoid being out in public in daylight. It's nice to be out in the country where no-one is around anyway because I don't have to be so paranoid about being seen.

I just want to be done with life. I've never hurt this badly before. He destroyed me I hate him for it. I loved him I was there. He doesn't love me even though he says he does. I hate you. I hate her. I hate everything you've made me become. I hate you for making me hate you...

I don't know what to do anymore, I live with my two best friends, and lately they keep getting into more and more, arguments, and each one is worse then the last, then they come to me for help, and I try to give the best advice that I can, but then they just get mad at me and...

I dont like people to see me cry. i dont want people to think im weak, so i dont cry or freak out in front of people. i save it for when im alone and no one can see me. ive had break downs, many in fact, but no one knows. i put up the front that im a strong and nothing bothers me...

Everyone will have problems.I usually do not show my emotions to the people around me. I will be breaking inside while I act like a clown and make others laugh.I do mimicry or whatever i can to release the tension in the atmosphere.I am good at that.Probably those...

for school. Im not a good student. All my performance of my studies make me feel like I am a worthless piece if s**t. I feel really upset. I hv just opened the book and revised. But I couldn't focus, I just cried so hard with my head in hands. Im so done. But I can't tell anyone...
